Conveyor belt deviation is a commmon and severe type of fault in belt conveyor systems, often resulting in significant economic losses and potential environment pollution. Traditional detection methods have obvious limitations in fault localization precision and analysis accuracy, unable to meet the demands of efficient and real-time fault detection in complex industrial scenarios. To address these issues, this paper proposes an improved detection algorithm based on YOLOv8, aiming to achieve efficient and accurate detection during the operation of the belt.

The use of extracorporeal membrane pulmonary oxygenation (ECMO) in thoracic surgery is rather rare, except for lung transplantation. To report the safety and efficacy of ECMO in complex TBS, a total of 5 patients with tracheobronchial and bronchial reconstructive surgery supported by ECMO in the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Tangdu Hospital, Air Force Medical University from May 2019 to June 2024 were collected.

Currently, no recognized and reliable prediction model exists to anticipate liver metastasis in NSCLC, nor have the risk factors influencing its onset time been thoroughly explored.
Methods: This study conducted a retrospective analysis of 434 NSCLC patients from two hospitals to assess the association between the risk and timing of liver metastasis, as well as several variables.
Recent single-arm studies involving neoadjuvant camrelizumab, a PD-1 inhibitor, plus chemotherapy for resectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (LA-ESCC) have shown promising results. This multicenter, randomized, open-label phase 3 trial aimed to further assess the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant camrelizumab plus chemotherapy followed by adjuvant camrelizumab, compared to neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone. A total of 391 patients with resectable thoracic LA-ESCC (T1b-3N1-3M0 or T3N0M0) were stratified by clinical stage (I/II, III or IVA) and randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to undergo two cycles of neoadjuvant therapy.

Early postoperative endoscopy is considered to be the most objective means to diagnose anastomotic leakage, but its safety is questioned by clinicians. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of early postoperative endoscopy in predicting anastomotic leakage.

Methods: Expression of circ_0008133, miR-760, and mex-3 RNA binding family member A (MEX3A) messenger RNA (mRNA) was detected using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).
Introduction: Radical surgery including mediastinal lymph node dissection is the standard treatment for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). About 50% lung nodules are pure ground glass or part-solid nodules, which are predominantly clinical stage IA NSCLC. Non-solid nodules rarely develop mediastinal lymph node metastasis.

Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant camrelizumab plus chemotherapy vs chemotherapy alone for patients with resectable stage IIIA or IIIB NSCLC.
Design, Setting, And Participants: In this randomized phase 2 clinical trial conducted at 2 hospitals in China, patients aged 18 to 70 years with resectable stage IIIA or IIIB (T3N2) NSCLC were enrolled between April 7, 2020, and January 12, 2022.
Background: This study aimed to investigate the prospects of using chemotherapy in combination with atezolizumab in the neoadjuvant or conversion treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
Methods: Prior to surgery, untreated patients with limited-stage SCLC received three cycles of neoadjuvant or conversion atezolizumab combined with chemotherapy of etoposide and platinum. The primary endpoint of the trial was pathological complete response (pCR) in the per-protocol (PP) cohort.
Objectives: This study aimed to use evidence mapping to provide an overview of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) as perioperative treatments for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and to identify areas of this field where future research is most urgently needed.
Methods: Multiple databases (PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science) were searched to identify clinical trials published up to November 2021 that examined the effect of perioperative ICIs for perioperative treatment of NSCLC. Study design, sample size, patient characteristics, therapeutic regimens, clinical stages, short-term and long-term therapeutic outcomes, surgery associated parameters, and therapeutic safety were examined.
Inappropriate accumulation of alveolar macrophages (AMs) and subsequent excessive production of immune responses play critical roles in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury (ALI), but the core negative regulators governing innate signalling in AMs are ill defined. We have previously shown that single immunoglobin IL-1 receptor-related protein (SIGIRR), a negative regulator of IL-1 receptor and Toll-like receptor signalling, inhibits lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory responses in AMs. To address the biological relevance of SIGIRR in vivo, we generated a murine ALI model via intratracheal instillation of LPS.

The RNA-binding protein quaking homolog 6 (QKI-6) is a tumor-suppressor gene in several cancers. However, its role in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is unclear. In this study, we aimed to determine the association between QKI-6 expression and survival and clinicopathological features in patients with NSCLC and identify the related mechanisms.

Background: Postoperative complications are an important cause of death after lung resection. At present, the adoption of video assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for lung cancer in China is increasing every year, but the prediction model of postoperative complications of VATS for lung cancer is still lack of evidence based on large sample database. In this study, Thoracic Mortality and Morbidity (TM&M) classification system was used to comprehensively describe the postoperative complications of VATS major lung resection in our center, and the prediction model of complications was established and verified.

Our results found that SIGIRR negatively regulated TRAF6 ubiquitination and such SIGIRR inhibition could enhance the TRAF6 expression in both alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) and alveolar macrophage cells (AMCs). SIGIRR knockdown may increase NF-B activity via TRAF6 regulation by the classical but not the nonclassical NF-B signaling pathway.
